We're honoured to support such an incredible organization and the dedicated physicians and volunteers behind it. The work KERPA does throughout our communities is truly remarkable, and we're proud to play a small role in helping keep this vital service on the road.

As a local family-owned business, we believe in supporting the communities that support us. Knowing ERV2 is ready to respond when seconds matter most is something we're grateful to be a part of.

Thank you to the entire KERPA team for everything you do for the people of the Kootenays. 🧡🚑

🧡 It takes a community to save lives — and today we want to send a huge THANK YOU to the incredible team at Babe's Automotive in South Slocan!

When ERV2 recently came due for its mandatory government inspection, the crew at Babe's didn't just complete the work — they generously covered the cost all of the repairs required to ensure our Emergency Response Vehicle met inspection standards and remained fully certified, safe, and road-ready. 🚑️

Because of their support, KERPA physicians can continue responding to critical, life-threatening 911 calls under Code 3 conditions, bringing emergency-room-level care directly to patients at the roadside throughout Nelson, Castlegar, and communities across the Kootenay region.

What makes this even more meaningful is that this wasn't a one-time gesture. Babe's Automotive has been supporting KERPA throughout the YEARS, and that kind of ongoing commitment makes a tremendous difference to a small registered charity operating on a tight budget.

Every kilometre we drive, every patient we reach, and every life we have the opportunity to impact is made possible through partnerships like this.

From all of us at KERPA, thank you to the entire team at Babe's Automotive for helping us stay on the road and ready to respond when seconds matter most.

👏 Please join us in showing them some appreciation! If you're looking for vehicle maintenance or repairs in the Kootenays, consider supporting the local businesses that support your first responders. 🧰

Not getting cold air from your vents anymore? A weak or warm A/C system is often an early sign that something needs attention.

Whether it’s a leak, low refrigerant, poor cooling performance, or a larger system issue, diagnosing it early can help prevent more costly repairs later on.

If your A/C isn’t keeping up, stop by and let us check it out before summer heat really hits ☀️🐖
